What Does Weight Loss Surgery Cost?
The costs of having weight loss surgery are made up of a number of sources:
- Hospital charges for bed stay
- Hospital charges for operating theatre session
- Equipment used in the operating theatre session. This includes the gastric band itself or for other weight loss operations, the stapling devices.
- Professional fees charged by the surgeon, anaesthetist and assistant
For an estimate of total weight loss surgery costs, the best way is to contact us directly for a discussion of your particular circumstances and insurance coverage.
Am I A Good Candidate For Weight Loss Surgery?
Guidelines for obesity surgery are fairly rigid. They are established by obesity surgical societies (OSSANZ and IFSO) and government bodies (National Institutes of Health) to ensure the safety and efficacy of the operations.
You may be a candidate if:
- You are more than 40kg above your ideal weight
- Your BMI is above 40kg/m2 or,
- Your BMI is above 35 and you have a medical condition associated with obesity (co-morbidity)
